Claims4
A helical liquid-to-ground or liquid-to-water heat exchanger of continuous tubing with at least two flexible straps that securely hold the tubing, establish a maximum helical pitch, and allow compact packaging before installation, with at least two linear compression members that secure to the strips just prior to installation, where the compression members cause the heat exchanger to be installed in its extended position.
